All-on-Four Implant Technique

Fixed Teeth in One Day with All-on-Four Implant Treatment

Individuals experiencing difficulties due to missing teeth often seek solutions through dental implant treatments. Dental implants are a commonly preferred method due to their ability to closely resemble natural teeth, their durability, and various other advantages. Utilizing advanced surface characteristics of existing implants and the current state of dental technology, individuals with no teeth in their mouth can receive fixed teeth treatment on the same day with the assistance of implants. This concept has been continuously applied worldwide for over 20 years with high success rates.

What is an All-on-Four Implant?

The All-on-Four treatment concept allows for the creation of temporary fixed teeth on implants placed with specific angles through surgical operation on the same day for individuals without any teeth, essentially resembling the application method of traditional implant treatments.

Features of All-on-Four Implant Treatment

Temporary fixed prostheses can be fitted on the day of surgery thanks to the high support provided by two long and angled implants placed in addition to flat implants suitable for the front regions of the jaws. Additionally, adjustments to the bone can be made after tooth extractions, allowing for extractions and implant placements during the same session.

Stages of All-on-Four Implant Treatment

Alongside clinical and radiological examinations, your dentist will take a detailed medical history from you. Treatment planning is carried out in three dimensions on a computer, and a suitable plan for treatment is devised and shared with you. Our dentists can administer the treatment using local anesthesia, sedation, or general anesthesia. Primarily, existing teeth are extracted, bone adjustments are made, and your implants are positioned appropriately during the treatment application. After implant placements, temporary prostheses are prepared, adjusted, and secured onto the implants based on measurements. Your treatment will be completed within 48 hours.

At the end of the day, as you leave the clinic with your fixed teeth, our staff will schedule your next follow-up appointment. This follow-up appointment is scheduled for 10 days later. You can have this check-up at any of our domestic or international branches.

During the average healing period of 3-4 months for the placed implants, soft eating and maintaining excellent oral hygiene are advised. Once the healing period is completed, your permanent porcelain/zirconia restorations are typically completed within 10-15 business days. The implants used are guaranteed for a lifetime under both the manufacturer and Aydınlar Dental assurances.

What is All-on-Six Implant Technique, and How is it Applied?

The decision on the number of implants to be placed on the jaws is based on the existing amount of bone and anatomical structures such as neighboring nerves and sinuses. Ideally, it is preferred to support 12 or 14 teeth to be placed in one jaw with as many implants as possible. The higher the number of support pillars beneath the prosthetic restoration, the greater mechanical support is provided to the teeth placed in the jaw. Therefore, in cases permitted by the existing bone and neighboring anatomical structures, placing 6 implants in one jaw instead of 4 is preferred.

Who is Eligible for All-on-Four Implant Technique?

This concept can be used in all patients eligible for implant treatment. Generally, patients with uncontrolled systemic diseases (such as diabetes, advanced bone resorption, patients undergoing cancer treatment, and those using bisphosphonates) may necessitate careful consideration and evaluation before All-on-Four Treatment.

Advantages of All-on-Four Treatment

Among the numerous advantages, one significant benefit of this technique is the ability to provide fixed teeth for the entire mouth without the need for advanced bone surgeries such as soft tissue grafting, sinus lifting, or the use of bone powder or block bone grafts in cases of bone resorption in the posterior regions of the mouth. The ability to place temporary teeth within 48 hours post-surgery and achieve smile aesthetics with personalized planning ensures a highly comfortable treatment. Cleaning and maintaining these prostheses are relatively easy. It presents an excellent treatment option for individuals with a gag reflex, an inability to use removable dentures, and those who seek higher comfort. In summary, it is a reliable treatment method that swiftly minimizes the period of toothlessness, providing high comfort.

Advantages of All-on-Six Treatment

Primarily encompassing all the advantages of the All-on-Four treatment, the All-on-Six treatment offers a more advantageous system mechanically due to a greater number of support pillars carrying the prosthesis.

Is Maintenance of These Teeth Challenging?

Cleaning and maintenance are carried out with a toothbrush and oral irrigators. Effective and regular oral hygiene is essential for implant health. Regular check-up appointments, typically every six months, are crucial. During these check-ups, your implant health will be assessed, and professional cleaning of the prosthesis will be conducted by expert dentists. You can undergo these check-ups in our clinics in Turkey or, if you are in Amsterdam, visit our clinic there.

Is All-on-Four Treatment Costly?

This procedure not only reduces the duration of treatment, providing you savings, but also due to the reduced number of implants, it is less costly compared to a full-mouth implant.
